Associate Professor Jane Stadler will question how aesthetic and narrative techniques affect film audiences and inform the construction of ethical meaning. She argues that the cognitive, affective, and intersubjective qualities of compassion facilitate ethical understanding and demonstrate that the way the film facilitates heightened attunement to the sensory body and insight into the protagonist’s subjectivity is indicative of the role cinema can play in engendering empathy.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='background:white'><strong><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:windowtext'>Jane Stadler</span></strong><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:windowtext'> is Associate Professor of Film and Media Studies in the School of English, Media Studies and Art History at the University of Queensland.
